littlecat

yay, nice to see you mate

i think standard discouint for groups over ten tends to be 5-10%, don't quote me though

tailpack/cargo net/ leave the backpack at home...hate em...never use one

get her through DAS and onto an R6... we can sell you the perfect private number plate

happy belated birthday mattypoo

late as usual...happy belated birthday mate

picked her up from school a few times when she was at juniors, on the thundercat....she thought it was ace, and was the envy of all the lads.

took her to a parents evening on the bike in year 7 , which she loved...but when I suggested doing the same last week for year 10 parents evening it would appear it is no longer cool

( though I suspect that's more to do with helmet hair and running mascara lol )

congratz, and good luck for mod2

matt black hammerite and a brush

actually, now I think about it... I think I gave it away to some hard up students

good point GoG... though im pretty sure the garage beer fridge is empty , and has been for a while

cheers guys, got her in the garage now, so hopefully start on it tomorrow night.

tango, that's brilliant mate thanks, id probably not have thought of disconnect the battery

ok, I need to change the slightly bent bars on kittys er5...have a new set of renthals here , and pretty sure I can manage it.. anyone got a brief running order...what do I take off first , in what order , what to watch out for etc etc

pinlock and rain off spray...and keep the visor shut but vents open

which is all very well if you have a wingspan that allows you to grab the front and back at the same time..... I cant

I have never been able to centre stand any bike , I use a sidestand ( or paddock stands if I need to bike off the floor)

for manouvering the bike when you off it...make sure its leaning towards you , preferably leaning on your hip ( or in my case my chest , lol)

Used these on bike to bike (they can connect to any other BT device too such as scarla) and rider to pillion.

Very good for the money. The only thing I've had to do is re-glue the mounts on all of the devices I have (3) as they all snapped at some point but it's nothing a bit of superglue / resin can't sort.

Works well up to around 65mph... past that, no good

Distance for rider to rider is not the 800m they mentioned but more like 100m.

those are the ones we have that I was talking about, and they do a lot more than 100m at lower speeds, motorway or dual carriageway is a different matter, but we find that's because of the wind noise, not the distance

you want shorter dog bones to jack it up...the opposite of what I usually have to do , lol

theres also no fiddling with buttons unless you want to swap from one mode to another ( and in that case theres a huge , glove friendly button on the headset) , we just open the channel when we set off and leave it open

we have the BT interphones , £60 off ebay , and done about 4000 miles with them this year.... as a cheap starter set id recommend them to anyone.

they do bike to bike, headset to phone, headset to sat nav, and music.

they work better when your in line of sight ( lost touch a few times in the mountains on our Scotland trip), and can be patchy at high speed in high winds....but generally very pleased with them, and im sure theyd be fine for what you're after

Well you've certainly had your moments in the past, but then so did I when I first joined, and I'm normally a fan of burying hatchets...

But what can I say, after 6 years in retail mid-management I tend to fly off the handle when I catch the slightest whiff of shitting on the little guy

So I apologise if my fiery temper towards this sort of issue made me miss the funny side.

 

Seriously though, you need to take a chill-pill or something. What makes you think im not "the little guy" too??

haha , you weren't exact the tallest guy ... so that probably fits

Derek you need to change your POLITE jacket for this one, which is a bit more appropriate apparently...

phil, I don't think that was necessary.... this thread has quietened down now, a personal attack/insult like that just isn't appropriate or needed at this point in time.

GoG, can you not rent one of the statics that were on site there?? might be worth an ask.....we will definitely be camping again.... bugger staying sober to get back to wherever.... just not happening

best hi vis i've seen lately says ,,,'you have just been overtaken by a female'...... almost funny enough to make me want one.

if only they made them in pink

looks like me and ohjay are fancying this... if you and bob are thinking about it too mandy , that's even better... should be a bloody good week

same goes for us... its 2 bikes, but one room
